Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006072259A2] The quantitatively most important pathway for the excretion of cholesterol in mammals is the formation of bile salts (the conjugate bases of bile acids). The major bile salts are synthesized and secreted by as glycine or taurine conjugates. Taurine (2 aminoethyl sulphonic acid) is naturally produced by the liver cells and central nervous system cells, it is neuroprotective and is a cholesterol lowering agent with virtually no recorded side effects.
